Netherlands raises terror threat level

Written By Unknown on Rabu, 13 Maret 2013 | 18.59

THE Dutch government has raised its terror threat level from "limited" to "substantial," saying Dutch citizens are travelling to Syria to fight and could return battle-hardened, traumatised and further radicalised.

The country's National Coordinator for Security and Counterterrorism said in a statement on Wednesday: "The chance of an attack in the Netherlands or against Dutch interests abroad has risen."

The warning comes just two months before hundreds of thousands of people are expected to descend on Amsterdam for the abdication of Queen Beatrix and investiture of her son, Crown Prince Willem-Alexander, as king.

The government cites the threat posed by jihad fighters returning from Syria and signs of increasing radicalisation among Dutch youth at home.

Substantial is the second-highest level on the four-step scale. The next step is "critical".
